Justin Meis: Heavy Fastball Usage Leads Three-Pitch Mix
The Pittsburgh Pirates have made a flurry of moves among their minor league teams during the beginning of June. With the Florida Complex League season starting, they have started to move players around the system to create opportunities for others, or to reward play so far this year.
On player that recently got promoted was 2021 10th round pick Justin Meis, who moves up from Bradenton to Greensboro.
A Bethel Park, Pennsylvania native, Meis was assigned to the Marauders last year after being drafted, and pitched 10 times out of the bullpen, posting a 2.04 ERA with 27 strikeouts in 17 2/3 innings.
